' base of the machine. Each key lever 4 is connected to a link 6 whichin turn is con nected at its upper end to a type bar 7' mounted in. ahanger Ssecured to the top plate. A space bar or key is connected at 30its ends to levers 1.0 fulcrumed on the bar 5, the lovers 10 beingdisposed at opposite sides of the printing key levers in the usual mannor, said levers as well as the printing key levers cooperating withrestoring springs 11.

A universal bar 12 extends beneath the prin ting key levers 4 and thespace key levers 10 and is connected. at its ends to upwardly extendinglinks 13 pivoted at their upper ends to rearwardly projecting crankarmsl l' on a rock shaft l5 mounted in hearings in brackets 16. The rockshaft 15 is provided near the center thereof with a depending crank arm1? connected to a rearwardly extending link l8-pivotcd at its rear endtoa depending arm 19 of a bell crank lever piv' otcd at 2() to a bracket21 secured to the base of the machine by screws 22. An upwardly andrearwardly extending arm 23rd the hell crank lever is pivoted'to anupwardly ex tending link 24 connected at its upper end to a forwardlyextending, arm 25 of a dog rocker. Said dog rocker comprises a shaft 26pivoted at its ends in bracket arms 27 and provided with an upwardlyextending arm ".28 which carries feed dogs 29 cooperative with anesrapen'icut wheel 30. The escapement wheel is opcrativcly connected toa shaft 3i which turns in a hearing 32 secured to the top plate of themachine and provided at its forward cnd with a feed pinion 33. A feedrack 34 is connected to arms 35 pivoted at 36 to a carriage truck. 37.The carriage truck carries rollers 38 which cooperate with a fixed guiderod or rail 39 and is also 'providc'd with a rcarwardly extending arm 40which coo wratcs with a second parallel guide rod or rail 41. Aplatcnframe 42 is pivoted at 43 to links 44 which in turn are pivoted to thetruck to afford a case shift movement of the platen frame. A rotaryplaten 45 is car- 1 ricdon a shaft 46 which is journalcd in bearings inthe platen frame. The platen frame carries at the forward side thereof aroller 47 which hears upon a shift rail idsup vibratory arms or levers45) by which the case shilling movcmcnt'of the platen is effected.-

A spring drum 50 is connected by a hand or strap 5! to the carriage tomove the carriage in the direction. of its food when the cscapc- Ll)ortcd on ment mechanism is actuated. The constructlon of the machine asthus far described is somewhat: similar to that ordi-v ate connectionsand affording a letter space to thetabulator frame.

movement of the carriage,

Rearwardly extending bracket arms 52 are secured to the carriage andcarry a column stop bar 53 slotted at 54 on opposite sides thereof forcodperation with adjustable bifureated column stops 55. A tabulatorframe 56 is secured to the frame of the machine in the usual manner byscrews 57 cooperative with the base of the machine by a shoulder 57 andby a yoke bar 58 which extends from the tabulator frame to the guide rodor bar 41. Vertically disposed denominational stop levers 59 are pivotedat 60 in the tabulator frame and are connected at their lower ends topush rods 61 which extend forwardly through openings in a detachableextension 62 secure to the base of the machine and each of these rods isprovided at its forward end with a finger button or key 63. Restoringsprings '64 are each connected at one end 65 to a rod 61 and at the oposite end to a pin 66 secured to the'memlder 62. The upper end of eachdenominational stop lever is provided with a forwardly extending member67 which constitutes a denominational stop. These members are guided ina two-part comb plate 68 secured by screws 69 The projection 67 on eachlever 59 has a cam portion 7 O in the rear of which is a locking slot orrecess 71. A locking plate 72 is mounted to slide vertically in grooves73 (see Fig. 6) formed in the .tabulator frame and the upper edge ofthis looking plate bears against the-lower edges of the differentdenominational stops 67, it being understood that the width of thelocking plate is greater than the width of the system of denominationalstops. A contractile spring 74 is connected atone end to a for wardlyprojecting pin 75-on the. locking plate and at its opposite end to a pin76 carried by the lower member of the two-part comb plate 68. Thepressure of this spring is exerted to move the locking plate upwardlyand to maintain the upper edge thereof in contact with the lower edgesof the denominational stops. When a tahulator key 63 is pushed in thecorresponding denolninational stop will be moved forwardly into the pathof the column steps 55. The effect of this movement of thedenominational step will be to cam the locking plate down until itclears the lower end of the cam when it will be forced by its spring upzi'rdly into the looking notch 71 to lock the iii-1 uated denominationalstop in its projected position.

I have rovided means for automatically releasing t 1e lockeddenominationalsto by the subsequent actuation of a prlnting ey.

These means comprise a frame consisting of two arms 77 ivoted at theirupper ends to the sides of t 1e 'tabulator frame 56 as indicated at 7 Sand the arms are bent rearwardly attheir lower ends where they areconnected by a so-called universal bar 7 9 which extends across the pathof thedenbminational stop levers-59. This frame is restored to andnormally held -in the position shown in Figwl by a springfl79. Pivotedto the universal b ar 79 and extending forwardly between thedenominational stop levers is a lever or device 80 which is bentdownwardly at its forward end, as indicated at'S], the downward endextending between the printing; key levers andto a point considerab ybelow, said. levers.

thereof and are provided with hook-like bear ing portions that pivot ona pivot rod 86 secured to the base of the machine above the printingkey-levers. A universal bar 87 is connected at its ends with the side.arms 84 and is normally below and out of the path of the printing keylevers, as shown in Fig. 1. This universal bar extends beneath thevarious printing key levers, but not beneath the levers 10 of the spacebar or key. A cam face 88 is formed on the lever 80 81 for cooperationwith the cross bar 83 of the frame which carries the universal bar 87and the lower end of said cam terminates at the finger 82. A shoulder orrest 89 is formed at the upper terminal of the cam face 88 forcooperation with the cross bar 83, as will hereinafter appear. Anupwardly extending link 90 is pivoted at its lower end as at 91 to thelever 80* 8], the upper end of said link being pivoted at 92 to thelockingv plate. When a 'tabulator key is actuated to project theassociate denominational sto 67 into the path of a column stop as hereinefore described the partswill'be locked in the )ositions to which theyhave'laech moved by 'the locking plate 72. Iltweve'r, the locking plateis afterwards automatically released as will appear from what follliws.The actuation of the tabulator key is effective to bring the lower endof the associated denomination'alstop lever 59 in'to cooperation withthe universal bar 79, thereby moving the frame thereby forcing the crossbar 83 upwardly until it rests on the shoulder 89; As shown or rclc inFig. 2 this movement results in carrying the universal bar 87 up intocontact with the lower edges of the printing key levers, so that anactuation of any or the printing key levers at this time results indepressing the universal bar 87 and the parts connected thr-xrewith, sothat the locking plate 72 will be moved down out of locking engagementwith the projected denominational stop 67 by the cross bar 823', thelever Sll-$l and link 90, and the denominational stop being releasedfrom its locking mechanism will be restored to normal positionhy itsrestorin spring 64.

'lvi'o arms or lovers 9:} are likewise invoted to the universal her 79and are spaced apart throughout portions oi their length. as indicatedin F and are riveted together to form in efl'ect one lever. A link 94 ispivoted to a cross pin which extends between said arms and f" pivotallyconnected at its upper end, as at 45, to a carriage releasing device orlever 97 pivoted at 98 to a bracket 99 secured to the top plate of themachine'by a. screw or screws 100.

The forward end; of this releasing device or lever 97 carries a hi-'furcatecl or slotted plate 101, the arms of which extend on oppositesides of the feed pinion 33 and beneath the carriage teed. rack 34. Theforward end portions of the levers or arms 93 have recessed portions 102and slots 1.03. .1 he rear end portion of the lover 19 extends betweenthe arms 93 and is provided with a pin 104 Whiclrprojec ,s from oppositesides thereof and which is adapted to cooperate with the slots 103 inthe lovers 33, as will herein after more clearly appe r, so as toconnect the lever l-)-23 and the levers 93 and cause them to movetogether. In the normal positions of the parts the pin 1041 located treeof the slots 103 and above the recesses 102 in the levers Q3, shown inFig. 1, so that an actuation of the escapement mechanism. whetherefi'cctcd hy a printing key or by the space key, merely results in.vibrating the pin it}! down and up in the recesses 16) in the levers 9.;without effecting a movement cl said levers. l hen. however a tahulatingkey is actuatml it results, as hercinhclorc pointed on t, in moving theunivc sal har 7E) rcarwardly, thus moving the love, 5 93 rearwardly withit so that the pin 104 will he seated in th slots 193 as shown in Fig. 2to connect the age releasing mechanism'with Llll sp key. ii at this timessed, as shown in Fig.

3, the result will he to actuate the inlcrmedi ate connections hetnecnthe universal bar 12 and the lover in -25 and a downward move ment ofthe rear end ol' said lever effects a dowim'ard moven'icnl oi ihc rearend of the carriz'tge rcliasing device or lever 97. This results in tinthe forward end ofthe lever sing device to lift the feed rack out ofengagcn'ient with the feedpinion and thus disconnecting the carriagefrom its escapement mechanism as indicated in Fig. 3. When pressure isreleased upon-the space key the lever ill-23 and the parts controlledthereby will resume their normal disposition shown in Fig. 2.

The operation is as follows :In order to effect an actuation of thetahulator the operator first pushes in the appropriate denominational ortabulator key 63, t ereby moving the associated denominational stop 67forward into the path of the column stops 55. i The locking plate 72will automatically engage the deiiominational stop and lock it in itsprojected position. The e'l'l'ect of this movement of thedonon'iinatiimal stop throu h its associated donominational stop lever59 is to move the universal hit-l 79 and the parts connected therewithrearwardly to establish an operative connection between. the lever 93and the lever l9-23 which constitutes a part of the connections foractuating the escapement mechanism. This same movement also results incannning the cross bar 83 up to and seating it on the shoulder 89 on thelever -8l, thus bringing the universal har S7 into cooperative relationwith the printing keys. The operator may now depress the space keywl'iich results in actuating the train ofcrmncctions between theuniversal har .l 2 and the dog rocker which a is etl'ective to actuatethe carriage release device 7 to free the .arri-agc from the control ofits escapmnent mechanism. so that the locked denominational stop and oneof the column stops on the carriage wil be brought into cooperation toarrest the carria e at the iced by its escz-ipement mechanism and thebar 79, arms 77 and the parts controlled thcrehy will be restored tonormal positions shown in Fig. l.

From certain aspects of my invention it is immaterial What character oftabulating mechanism is employed. .t will also he understood that fromci-a'tain of my invention certain of the features thereof may heemployed Without others. Thus the locking means for locking the stops ineo6pcrative relation may be employed Without the carriage releasingmeans, or the carriage rcleasing means maybe used without the lockingmeans.

Various changes may he made Without departing from the spirit of myinvention.
